graduation part I : what i wore

today was a crazy hectic day in our house, my baby sister graduated eight grade. i know i know, it doesn't seem like a huge deal, but my baby sister is now a freshman in high school. that is so crazy to think about! she looked so grown up (and not only because i got her ready) but because she is now a living teenager. this is scary. yes very scary.  unlike a few people there  i decided to dress up. *shocker* lindsey wore something nice, perhaps even above what everyone wore... or maybe not. but i did adore my outfit, keep scrollin if you want to see it

*classic lindsey pose* for the graduation ceremony i wore a vintage dress, with eyelit shoulders and eyelit bottom. i am in love with the color of this dress, it is a rustic cream color! with the dress i wore a necklace from a boutique in new jersey. i am obsessed with this dark blue layered tear drop bead necklace.

here is what i wore on my nails, it was my first time trying to use the sally hansen gel nail strips, and i promise i will do a review on the product asap! but i love it so so solo much! can we say the new essie wicked nail color!! i think yes!

this is the bottom of my dress with my heels. can i just point out how (wet. due to the rain) and how fabulous they are!! omg these suade colbalt blue pumps made my outfit. im obsessed.

might i just point out how stunning my un-edited/un-photoshopped legs look. all thanks to sally hansen, and her fabulous flawless leg airbrush spray. trust me i know i would never in a million years think this would work, but it did. and it paid off! this is one spray of the light legs!

oh so parisian

Little miss Maggie debuts her style as she hits up the streets of Paris. Throughout the lovely lady's week in Paris, the city of lights, Maggie's bright outfits were just striking. Maggie successfully color blocked with her striking neon yellow jeans and fabulous royal blue shirt. Our little fashionista kept it simple with her accessories and simply put her hair in an elegant top knot. What can we say? Maggie just may be our new chic of the week?

spring into some new nail polish

Spring is right around the corner and surprisingly in New York, it feels as if spring has already hit! With the new season coming the new trends are flying in! One of my favorite things about the changing of the seasons is that nail polish companies make new lines and design new colors. If you know me, you know that I love nail polish, I rarely ever have no nail polish on and that I also love changing up my nail polish colors daily. This spring the colors that are blossoming out are beautiful, but very different. Today I brought together three different nail polish brands (which i use the most) to show you what they look like.

Butter London is one of my new favorite brand of nail polishes. I own two of the colors from the spring '12 collection, and I love both of them! The colors that I have shown above are: Bossy Boots (light, opaque pistachio green. a beautiful take on neutral for this season), Slapper (s truly teal lacquer, bold and very bright.), Disco Biscuit (tropical hot pink with an undercurrent of tiny iridescent glitter particles.), Trout Pout (an opaque shade of cantaloupe, pale and retro.) and Knackered (a sheer, twinkling oyster shade flecked with micro glitter particles.) *Noted: the colors that I have up here makes up the whole collection!*

OPI is another one of my top pick nail polish's. OPI came out with their new spring line called Holland, and although I love it, I do not own any yet. The colors that I have shown above are: Thanks a Wind Million (a light sea green creme), Kiss Me on My Tulips (a hot pink creme), Vampsterdam (a deep plum with a silver frost running throughout it), I Have a Herring Problem (a dusty medium blue with gold and silver shimmer), and Did You 'ear About Van Gogh? (a light beige creme) *Noted: the colors that I have up here are just a few of the whole collection!*

Essie is beyond my all time favorite nail polish brand in the world. I love the testure and the various colors and the bottles (yes i love them too). I think that their spring collection is my favorite out of all of them. The colors that I have shown above are: navigate her (a light, bright green), orange it's obvious (a bright orange), olé caliente (a red-orange with a pink undertone), a crewed interest (a luminous peach shade), to buy or not to buy (a lavender with shimmer)  *Noted: the colors that I have up here are just a few of the whole collection!*
